The AUDIX DP7 represents an outstanding combination of seven
microphones designed to meet the demands of today's professional drummer, both
on the stage and in the studio..
Included in the DP7 drum mic package is the D6, Audix's
flagship kick drum mic, two- D2's for rack toms,one D4 for floor tom, the i5
for snare, and a pair of ADX51s for overhead miking.Also included are four D-Vice rim mount clips
for the snare and tom mics, and three heavy duty tension fit mic clips for the
other three mics.Everything is
conveniently packaged in a foam-linedaluminum road case for safe keeping when the mics are not in use.
Package Components Features:
D6 - Kick Drum
The D6 has a frequency response of 30Hz-15kHz and is
characterized with a cardioid pick-up pattern. The D6 is designed to sound good
in any position and it is not dependent on finding the "sweet spot"
of the drum. The D6 capsule features the same legendary VLM technology that has
made the D series percussion and instrument microphones very popular for
today's live stages and recording studios.
i5 - Snare
The i5 has the ability to capture the rich, deep resonance
of the snare along with the attack necessary to cut through the mix.The i5's cardioid polar pattern allows it to
focus on the specific instrument that is being miked while rejecting other
instruments or ambient noise on stage. With a smooth and uniform frequency
response of 50 Hz-16 kHz and an ability to handle sound pressure levels in
excess of 140 dB, the i5 can be also used for a wide variety of instrument
applications including percussion, guitar cabs, and vocals.
D2(two) - Rack Toms
For bringing out the real, dynamic sound of toms or congas,
the D2 cannot be beat.The D2 accurately
reproduces the warmth and overtones of the instrument without sounding harsh or
boomy.The D2, which is very natural and
articulate, requires very little (if any) EQ, and because of the tight
hypercardioid polar pattern, no gating is needed.
D4 -Floor Tom
The D4, which provides an additional octave of low end
response beyond the D2, is the perfect companion for large toms and other
instruments characterized with extended bass frequencies.In fact, the D4 responds down to below 40
Hz, a remarkable feat for a microphone of the this size.The D4 is characterized with flat linear
response and can be considered the most versatile of the D-Series microphones.
ADX51 (two) -Overheads
The ADX51 is a pre-polarized condenser microphone designed
to handle nuances of recording as well as the rigors of live sound.Characterized with extended highs, excellent
imaging, and high SPL capabilities, the ADX51 can be used for cymbals,
high-hat, and acoustic instruments.The
ADX51 also features a -10dB pad and bass roll-off filter, making it extremely
useful for a wide variety of applications.
